Benefits Of Getting A New Boiler

December 22, 2017

Boilers might seem like an expensive acquisition at first,
but there are a number of benefits that we think make the installation of a
brand new one completely worthwhile. They might even save you money in the
long-term. Take a read as to how…

Lower
energy bills

A new boiler can reduce your annual energy bills. Lets be
honest, need we say anymore?

All boilers that are manufactured and sold in the UK are
rated from A to G by the Seasonal Efficiency of Domestic Boilers Scheme.
Boilers that are rated “A” achieve efficiency levels over 90%, whilst boilers
that are graded “G” achieve efficiency levels below 70%. To put this into
perspective, if you upgrade from a G-rated boiler to a new A-rated boiler, you
could make annual savings of up to £300 – therefore recouping the costs of a
brand new boiler in no time. Not to forget, a new A-rated boiler is a great
selling point should you ever choose to sell your home in the future. You can’t
lose.

New
extended manufacture guarantee

Most manufacturers offer extended manufacture guarantees
with their boilers upon installation. Of course, most are also dependent on an
annual boiler service, which has benefits in its own right as we’ve discovered
in a previous post, but a new manufacture guarantee can give you complete peace
of mind that should anything happen to your boiler, you’ll be completely
covered.

For instance, as a Baxi approved installer, we can offer a
10-year guarantee covering both parts and labour on a large number of combination
boilers. That’s 10 years with complete peace of mind! Remembering the savings
that we mentioned above, that’s £3000 saved over that same period.

Faster
boiler repair times

Boilers can breakdown from time to time. It’s like owning a
car; there isn’t much that you can do other than provide annual maintenance and
ensure that it is well looked after. However, if it does breakdown before you
decide to replace it, it’s important to remember that newer boilers are
significantly easier and faster to fix. Why? There are considerably less moving
parts in newer boilers and we can source the remaining moving parts much
faster. Again, imagine owning a car and trying to source parts for a 1950’s
Jaguar, it’ll take a while to source them. This principle is very much similar
with boilers. Avoid extended periods of downtime by installing a new boiler.

Smaller
and quieter

Old boilers are bulkier and significantly less attractive
than newer boilers (as attractive as boilers can be). Make room for the
important things in life and grab yourself some extra storage with a new
boiler. This is particularly the case with new combination boilers that do not
need a huge storage tank! They are also much quieter, particularly if your
boiler is on the verge of a breakdown.

To summarise, a new boiler can reduce your annual energy
bills, give you a brand new manufacture guarantee, minimise downtime and are
significantly smaller and quieter than ever before. Surely a new boiler is a no
brainer? If you are based in Ripley or the rest of Nottinghamshire or
